In just six sessions, string students will work together to record orchestral arrangements of three more pieces from Grieg's Peer Gynt: Anitra's Dance, In the Hall of the Mountain King, and Solveig's Song. Students will immerse themselves in this timeless music with group discussion, sectionals, private lessons, score study - and ultimately through collaborative video recording.
Once the workshop videos are completed, these videos will figure side-by side with videos of young dancers on virtual backgrounds - to create an original video ballet of Peer's adventures. Workshop participants, collaborative dancers and artists will have the chance to view the completed project as a "zoom ballet" and attend the ballet as a drive-in movie.
